So I&#39;m happy to see it can be done in the slow cooker. My &quot;recipe&quot; was chocolate chips melted and then add whatever you want (such as dried fruit, nuts, trail mix) until it looks like some kind of candy thing. :D Then I poured it into an aluminum foil lined small baking pan and let it harden.
